No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are thoroughly persuaded of each other's worth.

A friendship that can end never really began

Some people go to priests; others to poetry; I to my friends.

The most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend. I have no wealth to bestow on him. If he knows that I am happy in loving him, he will want no other reward. Is not friendship divine in this?

Friendship often ends in love; but love in friendship - never.
